they admit that serious challenges remain. we'll walk into a few some of these acts because we definitely got a test to the fact that the weaknesses in the existing legislations experts warn but unless countries like serial yawn, take further steps to stop unrestrained development. their population will continue to be exposed to disasters similar to the much light of 2017. how many degrees i'll do that freetown. ah, this is adriana. let's get a round up of our top stories. emergency teams in haiti say a powerful earthquake has killed at least 29 people. the prime minister says the quake has closed enormous damage and offered his condolences to the victims. how does your castro has more from washington dc? it's at the center was that petite. trudy me,

which is about 160 kilometers west of haiti's capital. this is again the 7.2 magnitude. how many are comparing it to the earthquake that had haiti in 2010, which was slightly smaller magnitude measured a 7.0 by the us geological survey. of course, that was a devastating disaster taking the lives of somewhere between 202300000 haitians and leaving one and a half 1000000 people. homeless, have canister, as president says, he won't give up the achievements of the past 20 years in a ramp public address. i should have connie said he is in talk with local and international partners to end the conflict. he spoke as a tolerable and captured 3 more provinces to next. i am not going to allow this imposed war now, nation to lead, to more bloodshed, and to losing the gains of our last 2 decades and damages to our public goods and infrastructure. because of this, i've carried out widespread comprehensive consultations with representatives of the

people and leaders by hand without international partner that is all in the consultation to be carried out in a speedy manner. the mind that floods in northern turkey have killed at least 44 people, volunteers, and emergency workers are rushing to supply aid to people. effective, severe damage has been reported in the black sea. town of balls could dozens of bridges and roads have also been destroyed while power has been cut. so hundreds of villages, a so called mega fire has flared up in northern california. dixie is destroy several towns in the sacramento since mid july. the fires around 30 percent contain california is on track now to record its worst ever fly. a protest is marching across france against tightened corona virus measures denouncing the compulsory vaccinations for health care workers. and the introduction of health passes. those, all the headlines were back in half an hour inside stories. next, news,

news, news available . it is taking control of more of the on the phone, as it says, again on the capital cobble. the president says he won't allow 20 years of gains to be lost in the civil war. one can shop connie, do stop the how of on its own. this is inside doors. ah . the hello welcome to the program. i'm kim vanelle. the future of uncle of son is topping most international agenda this week with many fairing a returned to the taliban rule of 20 years ago. the group is continuing to make

strong advances across the country, taking control of major cities. it's also managed to release thousands of prisoners and lucid military barracks, some of which were run until last month by the united states, as hundreds of thousands of africa and flee their homes trying to find safety elsewhere. president of ghani is determined that the taliban will not win to the next. i am not going to allow this imposed worn out nation to lead to more bloodshed and to losing the gains of our last 2 decades and damages to our public goods and infrastructure. because of this, of carried out widespread comprehensive consultations with representatives of the people and leaders by hand without international partners in the consultation to be carried out in a speedy manner. and the united states who is sending 3000 troops to speed up the evacuation of its star from the embassy and cobble says it continues to support a political settlement going forward. we're going to do

a couple of things. we're going to make sure that a terrorist threat can emanate from afghanistan, again by maintaining robust over the horizon counter terrorism capabilities. and the reason and we're going to continue to support our afghan partners bilaterally, through maintenance support and financial support. and we're going to continue to, to want to see a stable figure of the dentist. and the other thing i would say is that we want to continue to see that there's a negotiated political settlement here for governance going forward. will bring in, i guess, in just a moment. but 1st, this report from charlotte bellis, who is in the capital president ghani, has the address the nation and a pre recorded address from the presidential palace in this address. he said that he was looking out for his people that he wish security was as well. that they needed to see improvement and coordination of the security forces and he wanted any bloodshed to stop. the big question is, how does he stop the blood shoot?

and then the speech, he said that they were consultations ongoing with local and international partners . we understand that some of those negotiations do involve his own future. whether or not he will be able to stay on as president for negotiations with the taliban to continue and some type of political settlement to be reached. the telephone certainly has him under a lot of pressure. they had a leader from wisner going to son is male hum. who is very anti taliban? but when herat fell just a couple of days ago, he surrendered to the taliban and they sent him to cobb with a message to try to convince the government leaders to step away from gunny, enjoying some type of political settlement with them gone. he's also under a lot of pressure as a telephone. keep taking more and more provincial capitals and those provincial capitals get ever closer to cobble. they now control much of the south, much of the north and province's problems directly to the south of cobble, and they are pricing on a province just to the west to cobble. also,

a panic is growing. in kabul, there has been a run on the banks ticket prices. lots of carbon have skyrocketed, and a lot of people are becoming increasingly concerned as the taliban come closer to cobble charlotte bellis the inside story. ah. okay, let's bring in, i guess. joining us from cobble chicago, a member of going to sounds, national parliaments and chair woman of the parliamentary women caucus. and it's tumble. how don't know me, assistant professor of laura at the american university. all i've gone on and from london, sir nick k, former u. k. ambassador to, i've gone a storm, a very more welcome to you, or i might have thought with you, or he meet. what's your sense of what's happening in the country where all of this is heading is not headed toward a good place. the people i talked to underground the all express despair,

all the younger generation, the generation that was a product last 20 years of investment. i didn't feel like they have a place, you know, honest on anymore. and everyone is looking for a way to leave those who can do leave. these are not people who are used to western values or not. people want to live like american european people's lives who to caught up on war. and these are ordinary on some of them, very conservative, very socially conservative, but they still, they even conclude that nothing to live for you to call the spot anymore. that's the state of how people feeling. the political situation you just reported on it just the there hold for add some form of deal that will be reached to save. cobble, make sure that the car will not come under attack, and some sort of publisher that will be reached and tell them, would not take militarily turning themselves into a prior and making upon a son into an oppressive regime that we all remember from the ninety's. that's the

only whole people have and not a lot of hope about that either. but that's the only option we have moving forward . senate k, you do you agree with the assessment? what's your take on where this is headed? well, the telephone, bring the war to cobble. thank you very much indeed. and yes, i agree very much with her. it was saying these are very difficult and incredibly concerning times how it goes out to, to all african friends and colleagues who are facing the dangers and the challenges that they are and must absolutely condemn as an international community. they the actions of the taliban up till now. the reports of the, the war crimes potentially that they're committing horrendous. so at this stage, the really important thing is to take a pause. the taliban are heading at the moment, full speed. it seems to try a military, a sold to con, cobble, and that would be a disaster, be disastrous comp, will be disaster from my address kind of stuff. and it would be

a disaster for the tell about as well. so i think they need to apply the brakes weight, discuss, negotiate, and find one. all parties have been looking for for some time. now really is a political settlement that is an inclusive political dispensation. not just to tell a man, but a broad afghan interim administration is what is being talked about. now. think i have to bring you in. do you think the taliban will do that? will it take a pause before heads to cobble because it has made rapid gains? it clearly has the upper hand militarily, at least outside of the capital. well, it's been difficult to predict what will happen tomorrow in funding this up. because if i tell you, but if you didn't fight to, to, to fight, don't preferences. but i think unfortunately what, what was the reason behind the army and the police didn't

defend or like i just kind of under to taliban and know if it's not like a victory through proper classic was done. i'm not sure what happened, but because i hopefully they should not make a military attack because the other places up for a little more got low maintenance support. whatever it was they surrendered. are those? yes. so if you happen in calm, i think nobody wants control that insurgency or what is a couple as well. and i think that's a cost to everyone for not to talk to me because a very bad experience in progress was the people i talked to. i talked to some of me before i talked to them the medicaid talk, this kind of thing,

if you happen to decide to talk strong to me and i think this is what's expedius. i hope it didn't happen. and so the problem because some of i should understand that it's not on the time to find the price of the government, but mostly through school are also part of the country. so many people are involved in this conflict. * or the nice crime go to mafia as well? no, no, just different than 1st. i think there's lots of interference from the regional countries. i guess. i think probably i think nobody will my like i don't think they will like a really manage control. guess the disaster inside couple of hopefully understand on top great to a little the brick through the through because to, to go for proper solution to a talk process if you really want to receive just concrete to, to save that and so structure and the thank you to the private and public properties and also to reduce the pins and the pressure or the,

the distress which people are ranked ok. i'll come back to you how to me, what do you make of what connie had to say today. some were expecting him to resign, obviously that didn't happen. what was you will take away from what he had to say. he basically had nothing to say. you have to remember that the over the past 48 hours a lot of territories has been the last a to major cities of upon to some fell. and he did not say anything. he was a complete media black out from the arc and the presidential palace and people around 10. after 2 days he emerged and basically said nothing. the things he said really don't mean anything for the people on the ground. in my assessment, you might be, it's not about present money anymore. i don't think he is the person to negotiate on behalf of the anti colored one is widely unpopular enough on a son in my, in my home town herat. most people blame him for the fall of her. people believe

that he was the reason that the herat fell at the government for the fight. they believe he instructed them. i'm not saying it's true or not, but i think that the psychology underground you cannot have a person like that credibly negotiate on behalf of one cap. so it is vital for us to be able to preserve some sort of a compromise, some sort of a mix up the problem views and the abuse of their opponents. it will be an credible person negotiating on behalf of the college one camp president. that is not that person, and i think the time is not on the prism county or the government side. the taliban . the government leverage is shrinking. the as you reported, there are heavy fighting and happening in missouri. if, if missouri falls, it with the info. cling of cobble, get to the point that as, as was said, it now cobbled becomes a battleground of different facts and fighting, not even taller. but there are many a bad after the after you start fighting. cobble if that become the case,

the government loses all liberal anti taliban camp. this is all liberty to make any deal. ok, i think the present, the sooner to resign and the more orderly that transition happened, the traditional authority, the better the comfort. so nick k, do you agree with that assessment? does asoft connie have the just to see, have the support of the people to be able to negotiate on behalf of the government? ah, i agree that there is an absolute need for a holy inclusive half republic negotiation team that has been established to lead by a dr. abdullah hi, peace and rick conciliation commission. and there is no doubt that in afghanistan, no one group can ever successfully rule and speak for the whole nation. it is a nation that is so diverse, strengthen it's easy, it is diversity and plurality. and that absolutely need to be respected and

represented in, in whatever team and whatever negotiation takes place. but let me, let me just also pause a little bit. i'm old enough to be in the cobble in 1996 when the title of that arrived. and i met them 34 days after their arrival in trouble. now, that happened very quickly and the end as well. and i think it would be a mistake for the taliban to repeat the same experience. now. they are running now . they got the wind behind them, the rushing headlong down the hill, feeling very excited and feeling very victorious. but they are about to crash into a wall if they carry on like this. what is that wall? the wall that crash into is a divided nation and it is divided. it's the wall. so be an isolated nation if they take couple. ready by force, and it's a nation facing incredible humanitarian challenges already. there are 5 and

a half 1000000 people food insecure before the offensive started. now that number is even higher and the number of i v, p, and refugees, etc. so there, hurtling into potentially becoming responsible for a country that is in dire, straight, need to pause. they need to put on the brakes and this needs to be properly managed it for the benefit and interest of all africans. and i would say the regional countries as well, whether the bond, whether the telephone threatened to that kind of advice, i guess you could put it is another thing should cut ok. we're talking bear about the last time the off on tom was on the taliban rule. what do you think a future i've gone on on the taliban would look like. has the taliban learned any lessons of the past 20 years? would it look the same? what we actually were expecting on monday time will man kind of like challenge them? i asked them that if

a really change that you have to re open the school under the control under your, under your control. unfortunately, even going to school will not open on some of the womans activity we're going to close down. so this is the big concern of women and many times we had this concern and you were trying to convince the government on the international community to support to have more women. that table of negotiation on women's rights issue should be the center of that discussion with a target and also try to escape on also unfortunately, going from right, the woman's right issues, not very much priority, but for the men petition of this country. so my concern is that why totally, but we're not able to clearly announce deposition under god or the policy to guarding woman's political future or social. i'm actually g works, which woman has the right to do it. and they should like to make sure the woman has

equal rights that would, that would be not strict on on them. and so this, this is why women up off guns and really how come from like for how do you said that when people are start to play the country because they're concerned about their daughter kayesha on higher education than what? so that's why people think they do not change the same on even some of the things which happens to actually some of the crime happened during the last 2 weeks. people have a huge cancer. even telephone tried to deny maybe some other group did it, but no, because that was started by their talking about everybody like liberal do that you get it or maybe you provide the ground for that discretion. so just a huge concern for women to focus on, hopefully kind of by realize this. so i'm give a positive response. we got, i think they have to change if you really want to have a political future in this country. because people off gas sources,

we're going to buy people who are expecting that the future government should be, should be also to the proper election. how that i talked to have the right to to, to, to can. so you guys cannot to, hey, i can talk to you that ask you, i mean you're a member of up going to sounds national parliament chair woman of the parliamentary women caucus. are you worried that all about your own safety? right. definitely that too. because, you know, women have a more liberal and stand upright or woman is equal to, if you could do a woman wants to be considered as equals. teachers of this country goes like an advantage which we have, you know, what constitution do you want to preserve that 11 to extra for my life with which we had so far go should have access to education higher education. so i feel like with the menus are so what women i think and try

a woman politician or political actress and woman bridge extra. but everybody's just concerned not about them but also even about their families. because not what we're hoping to be that, that, that the policy and provisional tyler bond regard regarding this, as i said, there's a lot on helen's, there's a lot of unknowns. how do not have me un chief antonio consider says seizing power through military force losing proposition for the taliban, and that will be to the complete isolation of afghanistan. do you think that is true and do you think that that will factor into the tele bonds calculations here? i mean, the, i believe about one different thing. and so the think they want or contradictory. they want to reimpose their old version of their market a, which would result in severe restrictions, a woman. right. which would mean loss of the most of the gains of the past 20 years

. the life people come to expect, feel like they deserve and want. that's what they want. they also want international recognition because i think they have the expense of the last government, at least their elders do fighters underground. don't remember because many of them are young, that they realize it was impossible to govern and be a functioning the state without international recognition. i think that they one of the contradictory thing, how this contradiction is going to be result. what trade off the they are willing, the, or will be able to make that remains to be seen. but i would like to actually pick up what factors that a lot have been said about international timothy regression. but i think we don't pay enough attention to domestic legitimacy. if paul upon are not recognized, but most people's, of a on a thought as a legitimate part of a legitimate government. they cannot be damaged in the government because they don't represent the entire country. if they cannot, it cannot be, if it was,

bobby recognized the part of the government that he's come to power to negotiation to a mechanism that includes everyone and they choose to take power by force. they will face definitely a divided nation, a nation that does not, that does not freedom as limit. and that means they, there will be, i believe they come to brute force may be imposed the power, but they won't be able to get the education to started. they will not be able to assimilate the economy and do many things that would help us on actually live a good life. and for them to actually grow. actually be a part of god governing of an honest thought, if not the entirety of it. because you can buy or maybe punish people, maintain order, but it cannot stimulate an economy. you cannot help education grow. you cannot really help the culture grow. and all the things that help you society will require a government that is seen as legitimate. but by all moving on to the same stage of governance, we're talking about the nic. i'd like to bring you back and also have gone

a has in part at least blamed the americans for what we're seeing here. the u. s. troop withdrawal shooting us. except some blame here. i mean this event to ality must have been foreseen. yeah. before, just hot that let me just touch on also the taliban as i've changed or or not changed. because i see very little indication. they have changed very much. but what has changed is the world and the world today is very, very different from the world even of the late 19 nineties. on one of the biggest differences is accountability. accountability for crimes against vanity for war crimes. accountability, also for international craw and such as drug trafficking, etc. the, they're all far more mechanisms in place and far more ways in which people will be held accountable in a way they weren't in the ninety's and the taliban. ready to need to factor that

into their equation and their thinking as well. but absolutely. i agree with room that it's a divided nation. they will, they will inherit if they carry on on this homeless track and that has no digits of the city. the people of afghanistan need to see themselves reflected in that government should be a mirror and the taliban is not that mirror. but anyway, the u. s. yes, i mean it is a mistake for my point of view. personal do is it was a mistake to withdraw comprehensively, militarily, a mistake for 2 reasons. first, because the training advice and assistance mission that was being take undertaken hadn't been completed. the armed forces was still a work in progress and they still needed that assistance. secondly, it was a mistake politically as well because it removed immediately the incentive for the taliban to negotiate in good faith and properly. my advocated for

a long time that should be no comprehensive military withdrawal without a comprehensive peace agreement. unfortunately. ready that has not come to pass. i mean, that was part of the, the doha talk to her agreement, that was in it was part of the us withdrawal was that there would be interest, have gone talks, which obviously have not come to fruition or not to a settlement anyway. we're heading towards the end of the program. i thought to come back to you should come okay. and just to sort of sum up all of this. how hopeful are you for the future of your country? how do you foresee all of this playing out? well let's as before, some to conclusion one work i was the chair that this condition is not divided on the won't be divided because kind of but he's not belong to one ethnic group, i think who are fighting in the north east or west. but i think in the budget again, know how to come together and how to get united that for short money, frankly,

try to how divide this country, but i think they will not succeed. i think it backdated and run it. it will be a united nation to, to work towards what the achieve so far. i think you will have lots of political security, triple lenses in the coming days and future. but i think i've got people also realized that international community was be alive today cation of not supporting i live in a different stage, which that, that, that the piece talk we started by and over the ended by them. i think i've done, we'll learn how to protect this country once more and hopefully can understand and realize how to go over at the future. how to make this country back united on what to what? ok, guns did your patience and we have to realize that the department and enemies of up

can is done. cut your hands from time to do approx who was in discount. alright. well, have to leave it every time. thank you very much to all of i guess you can kind of carol, how don't or he, me and nick k, and thank you to for watching. you can see the program again any time by visiting our website. i'll just there a dot com for further discussion. go to our facebook page. that's facebook dot com, forward slash ha inside story. you can also join the conversation on twitter. handle is a inside story for me, kim vanelle, the whole team here, and i found out the news news news
